Confusing Love

What are you afraid of?
A kiss,
A touch,
A show of affection?
What are you afraid of?
Two minds,
One soul,
A genuine connection?

What do you ask for?
No fights,
Just love.
A perfect existence?
What do you ask for?
Do I have to become more persistent?

Why won't you try?
Is it fear or shame
That haunts you each day?
Why won't you try?
Has someone hurt you
In some unspeakable way?

What must I do?
Send flowers and candy?
Ask for a date?
What must I do?
My love has grown too strong,
I simply can't wait.
